Go Controller Garage door Opener

(Tomas) #1

How do I control the opener from anywhere and open and close when approaching driveway as advertised. I haven’t found a Ifttt recipe compatable or a web log in for remote access. Please help if you can.
Thanks
Tom

  1. Launch SmartThings app your mobile device.
  2. Select the “My Home” screen.
  3. Select the “Things” tab.
  4. Scroll through the list of your ST devices until you find your GoControl garage door controller.
  5. Tap the button on the controller entry to close the door if it’s currently open, or open it if it’s currently closed.

Thank you, I appreciate your help. I also have been trying to make a
virtual switch to make an applet using st, ifttt, Alexa. I saw a couple
that would work in st past smart apps but I was unable to find out their
procedures. I would appreciate yours or anyones help. ( Iwant to control
rainmachine with Alexa voice commands. )
Thanks

I am using a Smartapp for garage door automation here. Just add that to your IDE account. It works pretty well. It links to presence sensor that it will open/close the garage door on your arrival/departure automatically.

For basic coming and leaving you can use the routines to open and close the garage doors.

If you have access to the RBoy Apps server you can download the SmartApp here which can provide additional functionality for controlling garage doors and actions when you arrive and leave.
